ERIC HARDY — SPEAKER ONE-SHEET BIO Eric Hardy is a speaker, author, President, and CEO who has spent more than 30 years building and rebuilding a real company. He started in college, building websites by hand and pitching clients out of the trunk of a car. Since then, he has weathered a financial crash, led through a major acquisition, expanded offshore, and guided the company through five full reinventions. He has served as President and CEO since day one and is closing in on $800M in lifetime revenue. Today, Eric still runs the company he founded while mentoring entrepreneurs and leadership teams through the structural questions that arrive after the first big milestone. His keynote, Breaking the Entrepreneur's Ceiling, gives founders practical tools for testing viability, pricing, capacity, partnerships, and resilience — so growth does not require burning out the person or the business behind it. Eric speaks candidly about what it takes to protect a business after the first big win: making the numbers visible, choosing who to build with, setting boundaries that preserve the work, and staying structurally sound when there is finally something worth losing.
